Land use transformation
Study area
Six land uses with different levels of cropping intensification were compared:
Tilled vineyards (TV)
No-tilled grassed vineyards (GV)
Hay crop (HC): oats, Italian ryegrass and annual clovers or vetch for 5 years and intercropped by spontaneous herbaceous vegetation in the 6th year
Pasture (PA): 5 years of spontaneous herbaceous vegetation, and 1 year of intercropping with oats, Italian ryegrass and annual clovers or vetch cultivated as a hay crop
Cork oak forest (CO)
Semi-natural systems (SN): natural re-vegetation of former vineyards (scrublands, Mediterranean maquis and Helichrysum meadows)

where Oi and Si are observed and simulated SOC at ith value, Ō is the mean of the observed data and n is the number of the paired values. The lowest possible value of RMSE is zero, indicating that there is no difference between simulated and observed data.

EF compares simulations and observations on an average level, and can range from - to 1, with the best performance at EF=1.

CarboSOIL model predicted an overall increase of SOC stocks in the 2020 climate scenarios in all the soil sections, with the higher increases in the 50-75 cm section, and the smaller in the 25-50 cm soil section.

A SOC decrease is instead expected in the 2050 and 2080 scenarios in the 25-50 cm soil section, more marked in the vineyards in comparison with the other land uses.

Oppositely, SOC increases are still expected in the 0-25 cm section and to a more extent in the 50-75 cm section, particularly evident in the vineyards.

• The model CarboSOIL has proved its ability to predict SOC stocks at different soil depths under different climate change scenarios.
• Climate change will have a negative impact on SOC stocks in the soil section 25-50 cm, in particular in a long term (2050 and 2080).
• Important decreases of SOC stocks were found in vineyards.
• The methodology developed in this research might be easily applied to other Mediterranean areas with available data on climate, site, soil and land use.
